About Mr William Howarth or Dr Sabita Dutt

I am a retired Consultant Histopathologist living with my partner a retired Army Officer in the UK. I was educated privately in India, and qualified MBBS there. Then I did a Short Service Commission in the Indian Army as a Doctor before coming to the UK for my specialist training and where I have stayed ever since.

Mr William Howarth or Dr Sabita Dutt purchased this house in 2003
Why Mr William Howarth or Dr Sabita Dutt chose Kerala

The both of us just fell in love with the beauty of the place. It has a magical charm - the house faces east and the morning sun slowly rising above the tree line provides an ambience which once experienced can never be forgotten. Likewise in the evenings with the sun going down - the birds coming for their welcome drink in a waterfall we have created - dusk brings another special ambience of stillness as one enjoys an evening drink by the poolside.

What makes this house unique

The house is over a 100 years old - beautifully restored and maintained, occasionally visited by its previous owners - their mango tree is still bearing fruit in the garden, Brahmas house and its stones are still where they were built and where the oil lamps glow each week - put there by our staff. The hens patrol the grounds with a couple of guineas.

The house overlooks the paddyfields and forest area. We have a high viewing area known as the Paddypura - (gateway to the paddyfields) - beautiful valley scenery. Very good security at the House and garden supervised by Staff.

Great for walking and photography and enjoying each others company in a very private garden setting.

IN HOUSE YOGA - BIRD-WATCHING - PHOTOGRAPHY - FESTIVAL ELEPHANT PARADES - LOCAL AYURVEDIC TREATMENTS TRANQUIL SETTING - CLEAN AIR - TOTAL EXCLUSIVITY - SIMPLY DOING YOUR OWN THING IN RURAL SOUTH INDIA The morning and evening light is enchanting and as photographers will know, is the best time for taking pictures. Keen birdwatchers will find plenty of viewing areas in and around the house for capturing shots of the colourful bird-slife which pervades the grounds, the garden waterfall and the mature trees in a very large garden The species are spectacular and the view in the valley is beautiful.

If your idea of a perfect break is anything like ours, its to enjoy the benefits of a Fully Inclusive holiday - where there is no more cooking, cleaning or washing up as all those chores are done for you - where there is lots of personal outdoor and indoor space to holiday with family and friends and have the freedom of a large house and garden in the country to yourself and not just s hotel room or resort room then we have just the place for you.

For example grab your camera and photograph groups of wild peacocks in the garden or the paddyfield at the bottom of the garden - the local villagers enjoy meeting and greeting our guests when they are out and about - they are all friendly and their beautiful children giggle with excitement. Your family and friends are local celebrities here. One of our guests and family were invited to a wedding celebration. you may see a colourful Temple festival with garlanded elephants etc. Ours is a different kind of holiday and please take time to read what some of our previous guests have said about their experiences with us..

We have had our holiday home in rural South India now for the past 10 years. The house is a large and cool and you can do a workout each morning if you wish as we have a treadmill and an exercise cycle in a cool open room overlooking the garden.

Every guest is important to us and we work around what you want to do and not a timetable. You decide what time you want to take breakfast, lunch and dinner and staff will provide you with hot and cold drinks throughout the day either in the house, by the poolside or in the garden. work-out you may want to enjoy a leisurely breakfast and read the free daily newspaper in English or take a swim in the garden pool which is always well maintained.

During your stay - discus your plans with Mr Rajesh for trips out shopping, walking, sightseeing etc and everything will be arranged and organised for you. No struggling with local language etc. or if you simply want to stay at home and be waited on in a great climate with a fantastic read you just may want to stay at home in a wonderful environmernt enjoying the company of family and friends.

Indian roads are dangerous - very very dangerous but in the countryside you are much safer to enjoy morning walks and meet local people and get to know village life as it really is. The air is fresh and unspoilt by traffic.

We are one of the few places offering AN ALL INCLUSIVE HOLIDAY AND A SELF CATERING OPTION.

We can arrange excursions out to the Backwaters, or Beach, Waterfall and Towns during your stay with us and these will be provided at cost only.

We have travelled to many place in India but we hope you will find the unique environment and friendly lifestyle of village life a wonderful holiday alternative. Sights and sounds here are not to be seen or heard in the busy cities and tourist haunts. Here you wake up to the sounds of bird songs and a wonderful morning freshness and clear light casting sun-rays through the trees.

Beautiful Palakkad plantation house

5 of 5
Submitted: July 11, 2009 Stayed: March 2009
I warmly recommend this very beautiful house and fabulous pool and garden. The staff looked after us superbly, there was an abundance of wildlife and we explored the surrounding area on foot and, further afield, by car. Lots of space, an immaculately and sensitively restored plantation house - and no other tourists. Wonderful for writing, reading, relaxing, exercising, and getting away from it all.
Owner's Response: We appreciate very much the review of CMGM UK. The description Beautiful Palakkad Plantation House best describes everything about the house and its setting and we will incorporate it in our website. The acknowledgement of the standard of services provided is great credit to everyone involved and very much appreciated.

We're now missing the good time we spent in Kerala. We used the swimming pool a lot. The staff were all good and the Manager is very considerate. We walked around the villages - were invited into a wedding and had lunch there which we enjoyed a lot.

Spacious, comfortable and very well appointed holiday home with large gardens and pool in peaceful location in rural Kerala. Helpful house staff to ensure you don't need to lift a finger throughout your stay. Close links and good contact with the local community permit a fascinating insight into real life off the normal tourist trail in India.
